Aubrey Crum killed two large

with ten rattles. It was directly
under the tower. It is uncommon
to find a rattle snake on top of
the mountain. The second snake
was the oddest ever seen in these
parts. It measured 53 inches long.
Its back was slate grey with a
yellow stripe just lower than the
grey color, then a russet or bronze
stripe below the yellow. The un
der part of the snake from the
head for about a foot was spot
ted with black, then the color
went to yellow, then a rose pink
near the tail. The sagebrush on
the mountain is about eighteen
inches tall, and the snake would
move very fast and raise its head
above the sagebrush to look a
round. Mr. Crum shot the snake,
which is believed to be an Ore
gon Racer. These snakes are very
rare.
